Donate them to some school and write off the original value. Either that, or link em all together and have a Doom2-off with you, and 24 homeless kids...

impress your friends with your crappy beowulf cluster... sure, the latest athlon outperforms it, but you've got a cluster!

 

[rawko]

stocking stuffers or round filing cabinet fillers

 

[Demon-Xanth]

Sure, I'll take 'em. They make excellent internet terminals

 

[Ameesh]

give em to your parents for a tax write off, tell your dad you'll split the write of 50/50! tax time is coming up soon anyway so you could make a couple of thous.
